The causes of environmental problems in Sub-Saharan Africa are deforestation, development, and increased population. As the country is aiming for development, its environmental status is impaired. Increasing population resulted to migration to higher urban or rural areas, and continuous land cultivation which eventually caused deforestation and dilapidation.

Sedimentary rocks formed through the accumulation of organic carbon (dead plant matter) in low-oxygen environments (like swamps)

valina [46]

Biochemical sedimentary rocks are sedimentary rocks created by the buildup of organic carbon (dead plant debris) in low-oxygen conditions (such as swamps).

When organisms utilize elements dissolved in air or water to develop their tissue, biochemical sedimentary rocks form. The calcareous skeletons of creatures such as corals, mollusks, and foraminifera are used to make most varieties of limestone.

Shells and bodies of submerged creatures are used to build biochemical sedimentary rocks. Chemical components from the water are extracted by living creatures and used to form shells and other body parts. Aragonite, a mineral related to and usually replaced by calcite, and silica are among the constituents.

Suppose that you are on an expedition to study mountains in a polar climate. On one of the slopes, you find a large deposit of s

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

The glacier's weight that is combined with the gradual movement, can alter and reforms the landscape over hundreds the thousands of the years. The ice then erodes the land surface and this can break the rocks and the soil debris far from their original places, resulting in various glacial landforms.

The Glaciers retreat also leads to the rise of the large sets of the sediments that are being deposited when the terminal extends as far down valley as it previously did. The Glaciers retreat as the ice melts more quickly than snowfall can accumulate and thus form the new glacial ice.
